How to add color effects / themes / harmony to them

You first have to break apart the paths. Go to the window and then extensions and Kuler command. If you are not connected to the web (what you are not? how comes you are reading this?) then the only option will be the create. You can still use the Kuler tool to create harmonious color schemes to any selected shapess (as well as the entire movie).

How to use with large movies or small movies

All are vector shapes and can be increased in size / rotated and more without any sizing issues

How to modify them

One option, break the shapes apart (using the right click menu option) and use the pointer tool to modify the path's points.

How to make buttons

To use them as buttons, Simply drag any of the artwork from the panel and then back into the panel and select 'button' option. Assign the up / down. Assign an action such as go to URL.

How to export to other applications

Or access them via another application such as AI or Freehand to tweak the shapes further. Simply select the items and then use export command to export them to EPS or
AI format

How to animate

Once in the application, place in frames / key frames, tween as normal. As they are purely used as an instance (containing transformation information such as scaling, rotation and a reference back to the original source), they have little impact on the actual file size.

In earlier versions

If you wish to modify them further, you need to use the modify followed by the break apart command to break the link with the vector graphic. They can then be re-colored using a blend fill as well
as adding an edge using the bottle tool. In the recent versions of applications you can double click the vector and enter the isolation mode to edit a particular part of the shape.

How to distort the vector graphics

They can also be distorted and paths tweaked using the pointer tool. The path can also be inset or expanded.

How can I get more

There are 5000 shapes available in our collection set and that contains many weird and wonderful as well as basic vector imagery. There are also 14 original themed packs + other packs.

How to modify and save new imagery etc

The shapes are only a starting point. They can be modified and then re-saved as a new artwork and added to your own project libraries.

How to spray particles using the deco tool ? (No longer in CC)

Set the advanced options for the animation such as the total length of frames for the particles, life span, rate per frame, gravity effects, initial size. Access the deco tool via the tools dialog.
